Wanyama's reunion with Pochettino makes this a particularly interesting signing for Spurs, and supporters have been taking to Twitter in order to give their views.

Fans suggested that Wanyama will add experience and aggression to the Tottenham midfield, forming a tough partnership with Dier and Dembele - and pointed to his experience with Pochettino as a key reason for their delight with the signing.

Supporters also praised chairman Daniel Levy for backing manager Pochettino with the players he wants and has worked with before, whilst also lauding him for getting a superb price on Wanyama, who had just one year left on his contract at Southampton.

#thfc Wanyama ticks all the boxes: known and trusted by Pochettino, competition for Dier, Champions League & PL experience. Top signing.
